I’ve always loved Panera but this location was particularly nice. It was a busy time of day, around lunch time, but got in and out fairly quickly.Got a pick 2 with the bacon turkey bravo and the Asian citrus salad. I was pleasantly shocked at the portion size! The salad was so good, I couldn’t get enough of it. Had a great lunch!

I went to Panera bread for breakfast and the sweetest girl was working, her name was Essmy. She made my day! They should definitely hire more people like her!

Love the food especially if you are into healthier options. Friendly staff and inviting atmosphere

The lady who was working in the back was very rude. I asked for a side of BBQ sauce for my BBQ chicken salad, to the lady who brought us the food. The lady in the back she got all upset and scoffed, not knowing that I was watching her the whole time. I told the lady who brought me the food, she doesn’t have to get all upset because I asked for some BBQ sauce. She lies to me and says she didn’t get upset, I said “I saw her and watched her the whole time and she scoffed.” I said, “she doesn’t need to be rude just cause I asked for something.” She started to walk away and say, “she didn’t.” I said, “I saw her.” The waitress scoffed again at me.

Food was OK, I don't recommend this place unless you're getting pastries or coffee. Don't venture on anything else in the Menu.

It's always good and service ??

This place needs an interior upgrade.

Really good sandwiches and awesome customer service!.

staff was efficient and restaurant was clean

It was my first time to try a Toasted beef & White Cheddar sandwich at this place, what can I say….. it was the worst sandwich I have ever had. Huge piece of bread, a few tiny pieces of beef, really few pieces of onion. That’s it. For $11.00. Just ridiculous.
